Patent CA-2640096-C (CA)
Inventor: VANNUFFELEN STEPHANE
IPC: G01J3/42

Abstract: A downhole fluid analysis system comprises an input light signal that is directed through a fluid sample housed in a sample cell (202) . The input light signal may originate from a plurality of light sources (200) . A light signal output from the sample cell is then routed (206) to two or more spectrometers (214, 216) for measurement of the represented wavelengths in the output light signal. The output of the spectrometers is then compared to known values for hydrocarbons typically encountered downhole. This provides insight into the composition of the sample fluid. Additionally, the input light can be routed directly (210) to the two or more spectrometers to be used in calibration of the system in the high temperature and noise environment downhole.

Abstract: Contemplated configurations and methods employ COS hydrolysis and a downstream H2S removal unit to produce a treated feed gas that is then further desulfurized in an absorber using two lean oil fluids. The so produced mercaptan enriched hydrocarbon fluid is fed to a distillation column that produces a light overhead vapor that is preferably combined with the treated feed gas and a sulfur rich bottom product that is in most cases preferably directly fed to a hydrocarbon processing unit comprising a hydrotreater. In further especially preferred aspects, the hydrocarbon processing unit produces at least one and more typically both of the two lean oil fluids, and the treated gas is optionally further processed to produce clean fuel gas in a hydrotreater for olefinic saturation and sulfur conversion using a lean oil recycle for reactor temperature control.
